Winter Birthday Party Idea For Kids

Celebrate Baby: A Winter Candy Land First Birthday

Is Mama's little angel a December baby? Planning a birthday during the holidays can be downright exhausting. You've got a million things to do — and buy! We're loving the idea of a Winter candy land theme for your baby's birthday, since you can have your holiday decor double as party decor — and save some time and money. That also means you can justify spending a little extra on holiday decor this year — it's for the baby's birthday!

Check out this Winter candy-land-themed first birthday, and get inspired to put together your baby's own Winter wonderland.

Chillin' in a Winter candy land! This lucky little boy's first birthday is blowing in with the holiday chill, and every little detail of this party is pretty cool — starting with the custom, themed invitations featuring a vibrant color palette and a cute little penguin.

Yummy red velvet cupcakes where also part of the deliciousness available at the party's dessert table — topped with mini candy canes and custom cupcake toppers to tie them into the Winter candy land theme.

A custom creation by Mom — sort of! Mama placed a custom order at the bakery of her local Target with very special instructions: three layers of round cake with fudge between each layer, iced with smooth buttercream and red polka dots with a red beaded border.

Now that Mama had the basics covered, she took care of decorating the cake with items she already had on hand — some large swirly lollipops from Target and some supercute cookies to match the theme!

It's a candy-land-themed party — of course, there's more candy! A second table was set up as a candy buffet, jam-packed with all sorts of sweet treats — like colorful gum balls and an assorted variety of other candies, which little guests got to take home.

Yum, indeed! More cupcakes were also available at the candy buffet table, but these were a bit different from the ones at the dessert table — they were decorated with delicious fondant cupcake toppers!

All the kiddies in attendance had a blast taking turns trying to break open the penguin piñata! Each little guest was sent home with themed favor bags filled with candy, penguin drink cups, and a fun ornament to hang on their tree!
